    No dice. The pimping ruins it. I might take $10,000 to undo all that nastiness and restore it to showroom specs, not even showroom condition. Maybe more if new M-B suspension parts are needed to undo the lift. Just a set of OEM wheels is probably $4000; maybe $2000 on eBay.

    “In fact, if you did find a public Level 2 charger outside of a business somewhere, it’s likely you’d be able to plug into it for free.”

    1500 personalized backpacks! Oh!! The horror!!! This is worse than to old Mafia days at UAW!!!!

    A nice set-up I saw high in the New Mexico mountains was a guy who had one on a headache rack he had added to an open utility trailer that he pulled with a Jeep. Sort of ta pop-up camper penthouse. The utility trailer held lots of stuff, of course.

    “Knew he could not successfully land”....? Nope. If he could take off and fly it, he was in control and knew the basic controls: power, elevator, rudder, ailerons. ATC could get him on he glide slope and then he just flies it on down.

    I have thought there is some profit in another kind of trailer. A generator trailer powering one or two superchargers to use for EV “road service” or to park in rest areas during holiday travel periods. You could make them green using hydrogen fuel. 

    What a great idea!  I am going to email this article to my Texas state rep. and senator.

    Andy, tell me again why I should subsidize little left-wing progressive climate alarmist Eloi weasels who buy $80,000 Teslas?

    And, to note the obvious -- Darwin Award finalists.

    What is the deal with “classic” or “collector” registration in CA for cars 25 years old or older?

    Hydro power is not green.  I has destroyed thousands of river miles of aquatic ecosystems and millions of acres of riparian ecosystems.

    16 x 440Kw = 7040 Kw is enough to power about 200 homes. 35Kw is a benchmark size for a whole-house emergency generator.

    Late model, certified Toyota Land Cruiser. Absolutely nothing is better for the CO roads and it is the essence of understated class in the land of Mercedes Gelandewagens.  It is, simply, the Rocky Mountain Wast automobile for those of discerning taste.

    3500 kg limit...interesting. The Cadillac Escalade’s GVWR is 3456 kg.

    Yes. Toyota would not loose a single sale if there were no 2Runners and there would be manufacturing efficiencies in having only one drive train.

    WESTERN few miles are paved.

    New Mexico 196 and US Forest Service Road 1950 through Valle Vidal. Only the eastern few miles are paved. It is a rally car road or SUV or pick-up. Graded gravel/rock. 4WD not needed.

    A friend bought a new 12 cyl BMW, I am sure it was a 750iL, about that era. After about 5 years his 60,000 mile service was $3500.   See below, engine comes out for timing chain replacement. 

    The Saab 96 automobile with the 2-stroke engine. The whole car is a delightful collection of features no loner available.
